    That means Peppers is going to KC.

    The money is getting fucking out of control. WHat a fucking STUPID deal. Donte Hall gets a 2nd and a third, Jenkins and other elite DTs get a 3rd and 5th, and this dipshit (although dominating, I know) gets a fucking 1st and TWO 3rds, along with a goddamn mega deal???


    We should've signed Peppers two years ago. If he hints at a decent season this year, they'll want around 100 mil.

    Goddamn, man.

    Well that means KC has two 1st picks, a second and three thirds. Now they need a DE and a OT. It's not good news for us. If someone falls, they will have the fire power to outbid us if we want to move up to grab 'em.

    That is what I was thinking. If Allen is worth that Peppers should be worth more. If he has a solid year and we do not want to break the bank we could put the tag on him and then trade him. Right now a first and two thirds sounds pretty good for him.

    Minnesota has chosen two supposed impact ends in the draft in recent years: Udeze and James. That didn't work out. This guy's a proven commodity and is still only 26 years old. He is definitely worth the picks, although I was hoping they could get away with just the first and one of the thirds. The salary is a bit high -- I'll give you that. Don't know how anyone can say the Chiefs "got the better deal" when all they got were draft picks.

    The Chiefs have the fifth pick in the draft. There is a really good chance that either Chris Long or Vernon Gholston will fall that far. If so then they can replace Allen with a better player who is also not a liability off the field. They can then use their newly acquired picks to shore up the OL and whatever else they need. I think the Cheifs are the clear winners on this move.

    Long or Goulston are probably going to be there, but if not, Ellis would be there immediately, and 17 looks to be a fine place to get an end too.
